BOXERS preparing for the Caribbean Championship will be encamped for one week starting tomorrow, with the Guyana Boxing Association (GBA), in a release, stating that the encampment is being held even though they’re yet to hear from government regarding the scope of its support for the trip to Trinidad and Tobago.

The GABA has named a team of 22 boxers for the Caribbean Championship, including Caribbean Junior female champions, Abiola and Alesha Jackman.

GABA president Steve Ninvalle said that he remains optimistic of a full team representing Guyana in the Twin Island Republic, following a phone call with Sports Minister George Norton on Friday.

Team Guyana will be led by elite Caribbean middleweight champion, Desmond Amsterdam and bantamweight, Keevin Allicock.
